The correction to not make a dentry negative has an error.
Currently ->lookup() checks if an expire is in progress and removes
the entry from the list, before the expire is complete so if more
than one process is performing a lookup at this time only one will
wait for expire completion. We need to not remove the list entry
until after waiting for expire completion.
